Houthi rebels in Yemen have accepted a five-day humanitarian cease-fire put forward by Saudi Arabia.
However the fighters warned that they would respond to any violations of the truce, which is due to begin on Tuesday.
The United Nations says that over 14 hundred people, more than half of them civilians, have been killed in airstrikes by the Saudi-led coaltion in the last month.
The U-N representative in Yemen warned that the bombing of populated areas in northern Yemen is against international law, and that the strikes are targeting civilians who are effectively trapped as they cannot access transport due to the fuel shortage.
